We know where to find them, maybe not in precisly exact terms, but it's not as if they are ghost.
Kosher is a jewish thing, are you saying the terrorists are Israeli's and not Afghani's?

The effort has to be made, and the fact is that left wingers would rather pamper these terrorist by giving them prayer time, cosher meals, and other such luxuries as they sit in prison cells in Gitmo.
If there base of operations is this magical kingdom of "Middle East" then they must
also have mastered the art of teleporation to bypass every kind of security to reach their targets

Once again, Legalizer, you get one of my WATS doodahs. Jeez, if this keeps happening people will talk
Anyway. Pulling out of the Middle East might go a long way to appease many terrorist organizations...if only it were that simple; the US/allies/West is simply too entrenched to pull out - financially, militarily and politically. If, for example, the US pulled support of Israel...whilst that would be great news to many Palestinians, it might spell complete destruction (from other pro-Palestine nations; of which there are more than a few) to the Israelis.
Perhaps a lot could be done if the US would actually penalize Saudi Arabia for financing and supporting certain terrorist groups; not only is turning a blind eye destructive in terms of obtaining support for US-initiated military action, it is perhaps irrevokably damaging US diplomatic relations around the world in other matters. Moves in the right direction have been applauded, but it seems such progression is simply "too little, too late".
Turning a blind eye to your friends isn't going to appease your enemies if they're both guilty of the same crimes.
